Had this problem on a laptop. There is a relatively simple fix. Basically, something was corrupted in the download for one reason or another. The fix is dead simple.

1) Delete all the files at C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download
2) open cmd.exe as admin
3) run "wuauclt.exe /updatenow"
4) Open windows update. You'll see windows 10 downloading.

It will download the patch again.

I don't understand why they would want to reduce reliance on nuclear power. Nuclear is presently the best option there is. It generates massive amounts of power, has very little waste, and a relatively small carbon footprint.

No, that's bullshit. If you're going to shut down an argument, shut it down by attacking the failings of the argument. Not the gender of the person making the point. All arguments should arrive at a weight of 0 until valid points are made to either support, or debunk it.

I don't think it's fair to say men can't talk about women's issues because they're men. That just creates a closed loop where any outside argument can be shut down by saying "well you're not a woman, so anything you say is invalid". That's the sort of thing you see a lot from hard line feminism - the idea that nobody but them can truly understand the argument, and we just have to take their word for it. Other SJW groups tend to do the same things. Any time you hear something like "check your privilege" or statements which point in that direction, it's a sign that the person you're talking to probably has no reasonable rebuttal to an argument.

I appreciate all your accomplishments as a developer. I don't appreciate all your comments as a feminazi.

I'm getting really tired of people trying hard to make it seem like all women are victims and we need to be run like a nanny state as a result. If you continue to treat men like the enemy you'll have a self fulfilling prophecy.
